D15 with a huge turbo like that is going to surge sometimes. The engine doesnt need nearly the airflow that the HX-40 wants to push and air backs up and slows the compressor wheel. Nothing you can do about it since you already have an anti-surge housing.

I'll tell you avery good possible cause, too much backpressure on exhaust side, you have a cast collectorless manifold...
Your downpipe looks really small too but it looks like your A.C. compressor is in the way.

yeah mang! props for doin it but im pretty sure that turbo shouldnt be run at UNDER 10psi, which is probably where the surge is coming from, also did you make that .48 housing fit the exhaust side????, looks like someone ported it to fit the bigger holset wheel
